I have a 2002 quadcab 4x4 V6 and I want a new performance Exhaust. I've heard alot of you guys on here recommend the Dynomax Super turbo. However, I talked to the tech rep and they say they only have it in a 3" cat back system. Is this true? I was wanting to keep the 2.5" pipes for more low end torque and HP. My problem is that my stock muffler is ~27.5" long and the Dynomax I checked on was only 23". How are you guys making up the 4.5" length difference? Or is there a Part Number that is a better match as far as length goes?

I have got a LOT of advise from dakota dan, but I have a 3.9 and wanted a good exhaust that was not too loud. I was suggested the DYNOMAX 17748. This muffler seemed to be popular throughout the boards. It will be here today. As far as the length goes you just have to get a piece of pipe 2 1/2 id, cut to length, and sleeve that on. I will know more in the days to come when mine goes on. I ordered mine from summitracing.com p/n WLK-17748. Hope I could help a little bit.

Right now, Ravin is the new popular muffler, I'm getting mine installed on my 3.9L this weekend so i'm gonna see how good it is. The ravin muffler has a muffler specifically for the dakota and increases hp, 2 miles more on mpg, deep tone and such.

I installed the 17748 Dynomax Super Turbo on my 94 Dakota with a 3.9 about 1 month ago. I like the power increase and the slight rumble. I didn't like the way it sounds like a glass pack (with the cracking) when accelerating. I installed a Pilot resonater from Autozone last week and it calmed the cracking. I can now live with it. I did remove the cat and hooked up the original tale pipe. I have 124,000 miles on my Dak and drive it everyday towing a 2000 lbs boat about once a week in summer. The worst thing is I live in WV and have steep hills. When towing up hill it gets loud enough that you can't hear anyone sitting in the back.

Sorry I didn't answer your question. Mine came with 2.5 ID in and out. I bought it at Advance Auto.

on the exhaust.. i just went to a local exhaust shop where i know the people and their work and had mine done first off i had a single in/dual out glass pack installed with 2.5 " pipes ($150 labor and all) and today went and had them to cut off the glasspack and install a flowmaster 40 ............isn't loud at all like i thought it might be but really deep on my truck-->> deeper than i thought it would be for sure and very quiet in high rpm range i also noticed a big difference in low end torque from it alot better than the old glasspack and i just paid $105 for the muffler and the install i really love the deep sound from it too.......... well that's my story and advice lol hope that helps you a little
